Kidney-Pancreas Transplant · Tennessee
Data Insight
Methodist University Hospital's kidney-pancreas transplant program is one of 112 kidney-pancreas programs tracked by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) in the November 2025 Program-Specific Report cohort. The center is located in Tennessee and reports under SRTR center code TNMH. These program-level statistics are risk-adjusted for recipient and donor characteristics, which means survival estimates account for factors such as age, diagnosis, and prior medical history rather than comparing raw outcomes.
For the current cohort, this program reports a 1-year graft survival rate of 93.8% and a 3-year rate of 81.0%, compared with a national risk-adjusted benchmark of 94.9% at 1 year. The program performed approximately 38 kidney-pancreas transplants during the reporting window. An estimated 29 candidates sit on this program's waiting list, though time-to-transplant depends heavily on OPTN allocation rules for kidney-pancreas, blood type, medical urgency, and geography.
Among the 112 kidney-pancreas transplant programs reporting to SRTR for this cohort, Methodist University Hospital ranks #76 by 1-year graft survival, placing the center 1.2 percentage points below the national benchmark. SRTR releases updated Program-Specific Reports approximately twice yearly (typically May and November), and each release incorporates a rolling cohort that may lag by 6-18 months because survival outcomes require follow-up. This page reflects the November 2025 release and is not medical advice — discuss these figures with a qualified transplant team in the context of your individual health status.

The 3-year survival rate is 81.0%. Survival rates are risk-adjusted estimates and may not predict individual outcomes.
How many kidney-pancreas transplants does Methodist University Hospital perform?
Methodist University Hospital performed approximately 38 kidney-pancreas transplants during the most recent SRTR reporting period. Higher transplant volume is often associated with greater center experience, though volume alone does not determine outcomes. The OPTN recommends considering multiple factors when evaluating a transplant center.
How long is the kidney-pancreas transplant waiting list at Methodist University Hospital?
According to the latest SRTR data, approximately 29 patients are on the kidney-pancreas transplant waiting list at Methodist University Hospital. Wait times depend on factors including blood type, medical urgency, body size, geographic region, and organ allocation policies set by OPTN/UNOS. Your transplant team can provide a personalized estimate.
How does Methodist University Hospital rank nationally for kidney-pancreas transplants?
Methodist University Hospital ranks #76 out of 112 reporting kidney-pancreas transplant centers nationally by 1-year graft survival rate. The center's rate is 1.2 percentage points below the national average. Rankings are based on SRTR risk-adjusted estimates and exclude centers with insufficient case volume for statistical reliability.
What should I consider before choosing Methodist University Hospital for a kidney-pancreas transplant?
Beyond survival statistics, important factors include the center's experience with kidney-pancreas transplants, geographic proximity (which affects organ allocation timing through OPTN distribution policies), your insurance network, the multidisciplinary team's expertise, post-transplant follow-up logistics, and the availability of living donor programs if applicable. Discuss all options with your referring physician and the transplant team at Methodist University Hospital.
